Unhand my Pickle!

I don’t want a pickle
Just want to ride on my motorsickle
And I don’t want a tickle
'Cause I’d rather ride on my motorsickle
And I don’t want to die
I just want to ride on my motorcy…cle

Love that thread title. :slight_smile:

Ladies, if you decide to try this strategy, make sure to post some pictures of it, you know, for us guys. :wink:

Die-hard dill pickle fan chiming in. Better than drinking the juice out of the jar, however, is marinating extra-large pitted black olives in the pickle juice.

Having just finished my pickle with my lunch, I though this would be a good time to respond.

I could understand your concern were it actually your pickle, but it was set out on a plate between us as a communal pickle, not specifically designated for either of the diners. Were it indeed your pickle, I would have been entirely in the wrong, but you had made no move to establish you dominion or control over the pickle.

Even though it was an unclaimed pickle, I slowly and dramatically swooped my hand down toward the pickle, so that you would have a last chance to assert rights over the pickle. And, I may add, you took that opportunity.

I was only seeking to avoid the dreadful shame of pickle wastage that would have occured if neither of us had claimed the pickle. I wuz innocent, I swear.

Ooohh. That sounds interesting. Will have to give that a try.

Thanks for the tip :slight_smile:

See, that’s exactly the problem. People get so incredibly concerned that the pickle might go to waste that they spend half their attention on making sure that my pickle gets eaten!

And I don’t think they were communal pickles. If they were communal pickles, then they would have been served in one of those round metal dishes with a short stem. But even if they were to be considered communal, you should really understand that in a pickle-eating community, one person does not get all the pickles! Each member takes a share of the pickles. If one member wished to forfeit their share, that’s fine, but you should at least ask.

Picklenapper.

Peanut butter and pickle sandwiches are delectable, though I prefer Kosher dills to bread and butter. But as long as it’s not sweet pickles, I’ll eat it. If you need something that shouldn’t really be a sandwich due to the sour factor, get some hamburger dill pickle chips, put it on bread, add mustard. YUM.

I also drink pickle juice. And I love the Tim’s Cascade Style dill pickle flavored chips. I know last time I was in Canada, Lay’s was making dill pickle flavored chips up there, and they were heavenly. Tragically, the “California Cool Dill” flavor that Lay’s was shilling down here a few months ago was more like Ranch flavor than dill pickle.

Washte, do you want me to send you a few of those whopping dill pickle they individually wrap in heavy-duty plastic from the deli dept. of the grocery?

Speaking as her hubby, the man who kisses her with some regularity, I’d have to say that’s not a good idea. My view is somewhat coloured by the fact that I think pickles should be classed as biological weapons, but there ya go.

One of the things I miss about home is Dill pickle potato chips. Oh, my yes. I will find some around here before I go back to NYC and I will give them to Ms. Bean and she will love me, oh my yes.

And then, I’ll take Billdo’s pickle away from him. Because, I can.

Amen. I just don’t understant people who eat their pickles during the meal.

As for picklenappers, fortunately most of the people I go out with don’t like pickles, so I never have that problem. Unfortunately, there seems to be a lack of understanding in these parts as to what a pickle is. At the restaurant where I had lunch today, they had what are essentially lightly marinated cucumbers – not even worth eating. And I’ve encountered these monstrosities at other restaurants. Bah!

Band name.
This thread is making crave a pickle.

Hey, Kal, I think we should let Washte make her own decisions on the pickle front. Maybe she’s been slowly withering away from the soul outward without some good, American pickles. She might leave you to return to the States just for the pickles! I’m saving your relationship.

bristlesage: Good point. Just make sure you send industrial strength mouthwash too.

Hmmmm. I have this nice jar of home made pickles stadning in the fridge. Made from homegrown cucumbers according to a russian recipe (lots of salt and garlic).

Mmm yummy. I think I´ll go and get one.:slight_smile:

Pickles and peanut butter I’m not too sure of. But bread-and-butter pickles with chocolate chip cookies… yummm…

*was that my out-loud voice? *

I should mention that while I realize, as you guys have yet to do ;), that while dill pickles are foul and should not be consumed by right-thinking Americans… sweet pickles are absolutely wonderful. Mmmmm… so crunchy and yummy!!

Please ignore that second “while” which was very naughty and ran up into that sentence when I wasn’t looking.

No ZAPPA/BOZZIO references?, you folks are slipping,
FZ “well, I’ll give you a hint, let go of your pickle”
TB “I’m not holding my pickle”
FZ “well who’s holding your pickle then”
TB “she’s out in the audience”
